Explicit State and Resource Contracts for Low-Precision Pipeline Parallel Training under Captured Graphs
CUDA Graphs eliminate launch overheads by replaying tensor operations over static virtual addresses. However, FP8 pipeline training continuously alters the scaling states, microbatches, and deferred backward tasks that those fixed addresses represent. Split-backward schedules (e.g., 1F1B, Zero-Bubble) decouple input-gr...
